Caboose

I got WoW + a gamecard, I'm good till around the end of March.

That's it really, I should have gotten a new PSU too, because WoW crashes my PC with my pidly 200W PSU.

I love guns... Its the one thing that makes me wish I didn't grow up in Canada (although I still used to shoot back in scouts, it's just really hard to get your own guns and no one in civilized regions shoots at all)

Align

This thread makes me green with envy.
I got 4 comic books(2 of them mangas), one ordinary book(Stupid White Men ~ which hasn't changed my opinion of Bush any, but rather informed me that Clinton wasn't Mr Good Guy like I had thought)...
Clothes...
ZM-RS6FM headset, and an InnoAX mp3 player.
Some perfume(whatever it's actually called in English) from my older brother.
Set of one-time razors, that can be used several times just fine, without shaving creme or whatsit... shaved for the first time in my life three or four days ago.
<b>6-PACK ACTION!</b> 6 DVD action movies totalling 10 hours of playtime. Though this was to me and my father rather than just me.

In fact not so bad.

Snidely

Let's see.

- chocolate
- that Source based vampire game
- Zelda: Minish Cap
- Pikmin 2
- more chocolate
- weird pouch thing that looks like a gun holster (!!)
- Battle for Middle Earth
- this awesome tiger claw thing
- very sharp knives, ideal for carving meat
- water-proof, stain proof apron so I don't have to change clothes every time I prepare a meal or wash up (:
- a miniture of a dragon.

That's all I can remember at the moment.

As usual, I haven't touched most of the games yet. The only one I've tried is Pikmin 2, and I'm leaving that for the time being (I collected 50% of the debt in three days, and I didn't want to finish it so close to Christmas). I'm still playing WH40k:DoW, I restarted Vice City before the holiday, and I've been going through Advance Wars 2 again getting an S rank on every mission in the hard campaign. The other games go in my pouch, which is full of gaming pus.

Nothing other than a headache.
